Nice to see he agrees with my recent comment about Doc:
"While it remains to be seen whether Celtics coach Doc Rivers and his 
staff can build on Rondo's strengths and minimize his weaknesses..."

Since that's supposed to be the essence of why you have a coach vs 
just setting them loose to play street ball, it's not a good thing 
that it's considered enough of a concern for a reporter to raise it

Also "He was our leading rebounder, and he had a knack for that," 
Smith noted, "but when your point guard is your leading rebounder 
then you do have some issues."
You know what, it's going to be really interesting to see how much 
our excellently rebounding little guys - especially for those who 
still consider Pierce a SG and when you consider Delonte - can make 
up for any deficiencies in the front court. And how that may create 
some matchup problems for opponents. Especially if we try to make a 
point of it so that the defenses have to do something about it rather 
than leaving it to be an occasional anomaly.
